What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Birmingham, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Jun 5, 12:05 AM CDT, 1 hour 23 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 5, 12:05 AM CDT, 1 hour 23 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL
1205 AM CDT WED JUN 5 2013

.UPDATE...
06Z AVIATION DISCUSSION.

&&

.AVIATION...
06Z TAF DISCUSSION

NOT MUCH CHANGE FROM PREVIOUS PACKAGE. LIKE LAST SEVERAL
NIGHTS...GOING TO LEAN ON THE OPTIMISTIC SIDE OF THE FORECAST
GUIDANCE...BUT ONLY IN NORTHERN SECTIONS. RAINFALL AND PLENTIFUL
MOISTURE AT/NEAR MGM/TOI SHOULD ALL MAKE LIFR CIGS AND MVFR VIS
MORE LIKELY SCENARIO DURING PREDAWN HOURS.

MOISTURE SURGE DEPICTED IN ALL THE MODELS CONTINUES AT A SLIGHTLY
SLOWER PACE THAN EARLIER MODEL RUNS...BUT EXPECT TO REACH TN
VALLEY BY 12Z...NAM SEEMS MORE REALISTIC IN SURGING THERE BY 09Z.
AGAIN...MODELS STRUGGLING WITH ONGOING CONVECTION...BUT CURRENT
TRENDS DISSIPATE SHOWERS BY 09Z AND WILL GO WITH IT. MODEL OUTPUT
DOES NOT SUPPORT REDUCED CIGS/VIS AGAIN FOR NORTHERN LOCATIONS...AND
WILL KEEP MY HEDGE FOR LIGHT FOG AND SCT LOW CLOUDS ABOVE MVFR
RESTRICTIONS.

SHORT WAVE PASSING ACROSS NORTH ALABAMA SHOULD PROVIDE SUFFICIENT
SUPPORT FOR SHOWERS AND PERHAPS THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE NORTH.
ELSEWHERE...FARTHER SOUTH...DAYTIME HEATING ALONE SHOULD BE
SUFFICIENT TO POP SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE.
CONFIDENCE/TIMING FOR TSTMS IS NOT SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO SPECIFY
IN TAFS AT THIS TIME.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 658 PM CDT TUE JUN 4 2013/

UPDATE...
00Z AVIATION DISCUSSION AND FORECAST UPDATE.

DISCUSSION...

MADE SOME TWEAKS TO THE WEATHER AND THE RAIN CHANCES TONIGHT AS WE
WATCH THE SURGE OF MOISTURE BEGIN TO LIFT NORTHWARD FROM THE FLORIDA
COAST...AS THE WARM FRONT BEGINS TO LIFT. SOME QUESTIONS AS TO WHERE
THE BEST LIFT WILL BE AND HOW FAR NORTH WILL THE RAIN CHANCES MAKE.
AFTER CONSULTING THE LATEST RAPID REFRESH MODEL...HAD OPTED TO BACK
OFF ON POPS ACROSS THE NORTH OF THE AREA. IT APPEARS NOW THAT THE
APPROACHING TROUGH IS RUNNING A TOUCH LATE AND THE WARM FRONT HAS
NOT REALLY STARTED MOVING AS OF YET...SO LOOKS LIKE THE NORTHERN
THIRD OF THE AREA WILL LIKELY STAY DRY FOR THE NIGHT...WITH RAIN
CHANCES INCREASING THERE AFTER 12Z AND INTO THE WEDNESDAY DAY TIME
FRAME. AS FOR TONIGHT WILL GO WITH LIKELY POPS FOR THE SOUTHEAST
WHERE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE ONGOING. THERE ARE NUMEROUS
OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES THAT ARE GOING TO INTERACT WITH EACH OTHER SO
CHANCES ARE HIGH THAT AREAS ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE US 80/I-85
CORRIDOR WILL SEE A MEASURABLE RAIN THROUGH 10 PM. AFTER 10 PM
ACTIVITY WILL BEGIN TO DIMINISH IN COVERAGE AS WE LOSE THAT DAYTIME
HEATING. HOWEVER...THAT IS NOT THE END OF THE STORY...IT CONTINUES.

ON TYPICAL SUMMER EVENING WE CAN END THE RAIN CHANCES BETWEEN 10 PM
AND MIDNIGHT...BUT WITH A WARM FRONT LIFTING THERE WILL BE
SUFFICIENT LIFT TO GENERATE A FEW SHOWERS AND STORMS THROUGH MOST OF
THE NIGHT...ALTHOUGH ACTIVITY WILL BE SCATTERED AT BEST AFTER 10 PM.
HAVE TRIED TO TIME OUT THE BEST CHANCES OF WHEN THE RAIN WILL MAKE
IT TO AN AREA IN THE WEATHER GROUPS...AS WELL AS ENDING THE BEST
CHANCES AS THE FRONT LIFTS NORTHWARD. BY DAYBREAK THE FRONT WILL BE
BETWEEN BHM AND HUN. UPDATES ARE OUT.
